02 BINI with loads of racey goodies, in some ways its more impractical than my classic! :P

Will be going soon though, to fund Overland travel to Africa, hopefully in the Mini...! :D

Well we have a choice

A 2011 LHD Chevy Suburban

A 99 Mini Cooper


I'm afraid the Sub will always win.

14 year old 3 series touring I am going to lie and say its a 330 (really a 318). Great for commuting and throwing 2 mad border collies in the back.

I drive this, a 2008 Nissan Titan with a 5.6 litre V8 . However, they never allowed me to drive the one in the back ground.... :lol:

A 170 Passat estate, ideal for filling up with mini panels including a roof. Oh and it shifts.

I just bought a 2007 BMW 730D SE which I collect on Monday to replace my 325i SE which I've had for 5 years. One I get a tow-bar on it, then it will tow the Minis on my trailer and tow my glider very well. With 0 - 60 in 7 secs and top end of 148 mph it will cruise very well in virtual silence on long journeys.

I'm normal all the time :-)

 

I have different cars for different uses.  

 

For anything work related (other than going to and from work), a 2007 Zafira as it has business insurance.  For taking my mother-in-law out from her care home, a 2002 Agila that used to belong to her and she like going out in it (never thought I'd find someone who loves Agilas!).  I won't take my 1983 Maestro out in the rain if I can avoid it, although I will my 1994 Montego estate, so I like to take him to Tescos as parking (at the back end of beyond) is relatively bump and scratch free.  I use my Minis in the rain, so sometimes it's a question of who needs a run and how many people/things I need to carry.
